Touch screen writing in pages.

I would like to ask the question, is there a way to use the touch screen facilities in I pad, I phone to hand write onto a pages document?
If not, who do I suggest it to to get it on the next update?
I would love people to be able to sign documents that I write there and then so it is all done, takes to long to print off, send out and wait for them to come back signed!
Thank you in advance!!

As far as I can tell, pages does not support handwriting input, nor do any of the other common we editors such as docs 2 go or quick office. There are, however several apps that support handwritten notes and mark ups of PDF documents. If the docs you are referring to are pdf's or can be converted to PDF you could use one of those.
There are several, read the reviews in the store to find one that works for you.
As respects the suggestion, feel free to tell apple.

My ipod touch screen froze on a blank white page and won't let me connect to itunes what to do?

My ipod touch screen froze on a blank white page and won't let me connect to itunes what to do?

It works for many users. In some cases the white screen is due to a hardware problem and there is nothing that one can do short of getting someonet to know what they are doing and take the iPod apart andmaybe fix the hardware problem.

PRS-T1 rapid page turns / touch screen unresponsive

I'm having problem with my new PRS-T1.
At least once a day, when using the touch screen swipe to turn pages, the pages will start turning very rapidly and does not stop. The only way to stop it is to go back to the home screen by using the button. From this point, the touch screen is unresponsive, but the hardware buttons work correctly.
After a few minutes, touch screen starts working again normally again.
If I use just the page turn buttons instead of swipe gesture to turn pages, this problem never happens. Using swipe it happens often, but not easily reproducible so not sure what is causing it.

Thank you for your post and welcome to the forum.
If the Reader is consistently unresponsive or oversensitive with a variety of books and you have reset the Reader to no effect it may need service. Give Sony product support a call and they can arrange this for you:

IakovM,
See below for a few links.
You should ask the people at Troll Touch if the have a software to create a user interface.
Usually, the maker will provide programmers with the programming codes and a interface guide line on how to program the different gestures.
I know that PQLabs as a SDK for their touch screens.
With the programming codes in hand, any good Flash or HTML 5 programmer can setup a web site that will take advantage of the touch screen.
One thing I can tell you is that with touch screens based web sites, when it comes to links or buttons to push,everything needs to be bigger than on a standard web site. People will be using their fingers to do the clicking.
A finger is a much bigger pointer than a mouse pointer!
So links or buttons that are too small or to close to screen edges will be hard to click.
You can look at these for possible solutions:

Hi Dee12124,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
I am going to get you to do a soft reset that, I will hope fix some of your issues.
To do this:
1. Press and hold the Home button (big circle below the screen) and the Sleep/Wake button (on top of the iPhone) simultaneously.
2. Continue holding both buttons until the iPhone shuts off and begins to restart. This will take anywhere from 10-20 seconds.
3. When you see the Apple Logo, you can let go of the buttons.
If this still doesn't fix your device, what we could do is try resetting the whole device, wiping it. If this is the case, get back to me and I will pose the steps below. I would recommend that you do this AFTER the device is backedup however.
Before you restore your device
Make sure you’re using the latest version of iTunes.
Use iTunes to back up your device. Transfer and sync any additional content to your computer.
Turn off Find My iPhone in Settings > iCloud on your device to disable Activation Lock.
Restore your iOS device
Connect your iOS device to your computer using the cable that came with it.
Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes. In the Summary panel, click Restore.
Click Restore again to confirm that you want to restore your device to factory settings and delete all data and content. iTunes will download the iOS software file and restore your iOS device.
After your iOS device is restored to factory settings, it will restart. Once it does, you’ll see the "Slide to set up” welcome screen. Follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. You can set up your device as new or using a previous backup. If your iOS device has cellular service, it will activate after you restore.

IPhone 5S touch screen issues

Hi! I have a lot of issues with the touch screen of my iPhone 5S! the touch screen have areas without response! but not always the sames areas!
each picture represent the different areas without response in the touch screen! are not the same in some cases!
I´m writing from Argentina, so we don´t have apple store here to go to replace the cellphone or repair it! I could buy the whole touch screen and replace it by my self, but I don´t know if is only a problem with the touch screen or maybe an issue with the battery or other hardware components!
Sorry for my English! thank you in advance!

Hi there Psycho_ar,
I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.

Touch screen does not work

I just got an HP elitebook 2760p.   Everything works...except that I cannot seem to get the touchscreen to work.   Whether the screen is up (like a regular laptop), or flipped down (like a tablet), it does not respond to fingers or to the pen that comes with the computer. I have tried using the touch screen while using internet explorer, while using the "desktop" of windows 7, and also while booting up the computer with it flipped like a tablet.
There is probably a very simple answer...and once I get it, I'll feel like a beef mind, but for the life of me I can't figure it out.   I can't seem to find any swich to turn on, whether physical or in the windows setting pages. The computer did not come with a manual, but I looked up on the online manual and there is no information on "how to use the touch screen"
Is there something that I must "turn on" in Windows 7, or a switch somewhere on the side of the computer which I need to flip to use the touch screen?   Could I be missing a driver?

Your EliteBook is a Business model. Your issue would be best answered on the HP Enterprise Business Community Forum

Yoga 13 - Touch-screen swipe gestures CONSISTENTLY don't work first time

This is a consistent and very repeatable issue that I would really like to be resolved, and I know that it can be resolved.
Whenever I do a gesture from the side after not touching the screen for more than 4 seconds, it doesn't work. It instead registers it as a swipe on the screen near the edge. This is very annoying. It happens constantly.
I suspect this may be the result of a power-saving feature. Maybe the touch-screen turns off after a few seconds and needs to be awoken by tapping it before swiping in from the side. If this is the case, then please up the timer from 3 or 4 seconds to more like 30 or 60. This ruins the smooth flow of Windows 8, and I would really appreciate it if someone did something about it! The other problem with this is that if I'm watching a video full-screen in IE and it registers taps of the screen as a pause command, I can't open up the start menu or dock the app to the side without first pausing the video.
This is a significant driver problem that David Pierce brings up in his review of the product here, and it still hasn't been revolved after all this time.
Do I need to update drivers? I apologise if there's an update that I'm missing, but I didn't even see an appropriate driver on the driver page. None of them said anything about touch-screen.
I'm not even sure if developers read this forum, but could my fellow users at least tell me if they have the same problem.
Thanks,
Michael
Solved!
Go to Solution.

My Touch screen was also not very responsive and I did the below to fix it.
1) Go to Device Manager
2) Expand Human Interface Devices
3) Double click on the last USB input device listed
4) navigate to power management tab and uncheck "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power"
This should fix the issue for the touch screen becoming unresponsive.

I upgraded my 3rd generation ipad to ios 6.0.1 and now am experiencing various issues. Neither Pages or Numbers will open. I just see a gray screen that says Pages or Numbers at the top and all of my documents are gone.

I upgraded my "new ipad" (the 3rd generation I think) to ios 6.0.1 and now am experiencing various issues.
1- Neither Pages or Numbers will open. I just see a gray screen that says Pages or Numbers at the top and all of my documents are gone. The icon that allows me to create a new document also does not appear. I went to icloud.com to see whether my documents still existed, which brings me to the 2nd problem.
2- It appears that all of my Pages documents are still on icloud, but all of my Numbers documents are gone. There were only about 10, but I access 2 of them nearly every day, so this is a big issue for me.
I went into Settings and all of the icloud information is correct and it "Documents & Data" is on. When I look at the storage, I see the Pages documents but not the Numbers ones. The next thing I did was turn my ipad off and back on, but this didn't fix anything. Since my Pages documents are still on icloud, I then tried to delete the Pages app from the ipad so that I could reinstall it, which resulted in the 3rd problem.
3- I cannot delete any apps. I can get all of the icons to shake and the small x IS available, but everything freezes when I click it. I can't do anything at that point except reset the ipad or wait until it eventually restarts itself. I've tried this with Pages as well as multiple other apps, all with the same result. I've also tried downloading a new app (which worked fine) and then deleting that one, but I got the same result.
3a- A small related issue to this that I am far less concerned about is that when the ipad restarts itself, it comes back on and the screen is really dark and I can barely make out what appears on the screen. If I enter my password right away, it stays that way until I go into Settings - Brightness & Wallpaper and touch the brightness setting (although I'm not actually changing the setting because it already shows that the brightness is turned up a little over halfway). If I don't enter my password right away and let it go completely dark, then click the home button, the brightness is fine.
So now I'm stuck. My guess is that I will need to restore it, but wanted to check before I take that step. Unfortunately, my laptop is on its deathbed so I haven't been synching my ipad to it and I fear my Numbers documents are gone forever. I'd like to try everything I can to fix these issues before doing the restore in hopes that I can get the Numbers documents back.
Any suggestions for any or all of these problems?

I do backup with iCloud. I can't wait until the new iMac is available so that I can once again have my files in more than 1 location without needing to rely solely on the cloud.
I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever. Is that right?
In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever.

TX2616au touch screen doesn't work after upgrading to windows 7

Hi,
I just got my TX 2616AU multi-touch tablet few days, it came with Windows Vista ,and the WACOM touch screen worked perfectly, by the pen and my finger as well.
I got a Windows 7 Ultimate and decide to upgrade the system. The upgrading process was all right, after the upgrading everything worked fine but the touch screen. It didn't response my finger-touching any more, worked with the pen but the pen was running crazy.
So I downloaded and installed ALL drivers for Windows 7 from HP website for this model tablet, everything looked fine but the problem's still there. I searched internet and followed some advice, downloaded the driver from WACOM for Windows Vista and installed it, it reported a error, gave me a BLUE SCREEN then restarted and then the pen got back to normal, thanks GOD! But it still refused to response my finger-touch, Im out of idea...
Any suggestion would be appreciated!
Ted

Hi
I think the Flash Card support Utility and the Value Added Package would solve the issue but Im not quite sure if the links posted by Jeka are right
Please visit the Toshiba European driver page and choose your notebook model.
Then download the Flash Card support Utility and the Value Added Package for Win 7 64bit!!
Ensure that VAP should be installed at first and then Flash card support utility

The image came up on my screen saying that I need to connect my iPod to iTunes, but I have a passcode, so it won't allow me to. And I want to try and turn it off, but my touch screen doesn't seem to be working either. HELP!

The image came up on my screen saying that I need to connect my iPod to iTunes, but I have a passcode, so it won't allow me to. And I want to try and turn it off, but my touch screen doesn't seem to be working either, so I can't even turn it off since you need to "slide to power off." HELP! I'm leaving on Thursday morning for six and a half weeks, and I absolutely need my iPod with me. I was just at the Apple store today for problems I was having with ANOTHER product, and I don't really want to drive all the way out to where my nearest store is (which is not very near) if I can figure this out at home. My iPod was working totally fine earlier today and last night, so I don't know what happened! Please, please, PLEASE HELP!

Now it's allowing me to reboot (hold down power button and home button and restart), but every time it just comes up to the same thing: the connect to iTunes page. Which is not possible. And I refuse to restore my iPod. PLEASE HELP.

My iphone 5 touch screen seems to have a mind of its own. Please help

My iphone 5 touch screen seems to have a mind of it's own. Whilst I am trying to type a text message it will quite often whilst i'm tapping on letters, typr different letters, or open up the edit messages to select and delete messages.
The screen can quite often take up to 5 attempts to use the home button when the phone it locked to bring up the swipe to unlock, and even then sometimes it will take 4 or more attempts to swpie to unlock.
Most recently I was on FB chatting and whilst typing, the letters were all coming out completely wrong, and then it was taking me into completely different screens, screens that whilst i'm tapping letters at the bottom on the screen, i'd have to ne touching a button at the top of the screem to actualy get into - yet my phone is doing it on it's own.
It has even whilst sittig next to me on the bed, scrolled from my "home page" to the next page over ???
i have spoken to Telstra who suggested a network restore, this did nothing. They suggested doing a back up, the a complete restore, which I am hesistant in doing as I have a fear of losing everything on my phone esxpecially my contacts, despite having done a back up.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Restart your iPhone...
Hold down the sleep / wake button until you see the red slider then swipe to power off. Then hold down the sleep / wake button until you see the Apple logo.
Try the keyboard. If that doesn't help, try force quitting the app you are using when the keyboard becomes unusable.
Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until a red slider appears, then press and hold the Home button until the app quits.

What is going on with my iPhone 5s touch screen?!

I bought my iPhone 5s in November of 2013. I've loved it so far, until about a month ago when I noticed a major problem. When I type on the keyboard vertically (haven't tried horizontal) different parts of my screen start being activated. For example, the amount of times I've been texting someone and end up sending a FaceTime request (so activating the top right corner) is ridiculous. I even tried posing this question originally off of my phone (why I thought that was smart, I'll never know), and I found myself typing in the question tab or refreshing the page or typing in the middle of random words every single time. I notice it very badly in iMessage, but I've also seen it happen on Facebook as well. There are times when I even find myself three pages back from where I was at first, because of typing/touching. Basically, I have no idea what's going on. Some days seem better than others, and other times I can barely send out a message to someone. It certainly helps when I slow down the pace of typing (I thought maybe hitting 'blank' parts in between keys was causing it), but alas this only helps mildly, and sometimes not at all. I also don't believe I see this touching error outside of typing (however, this could be because I don't notice it as overtly). It seems like if I was capable of recalibrating the touch screen, that would help. But the iPhone doesn't come with a recalibrating option other than wiping the phone. I'm just at a loss as to how typing the bottom half of my screen sends signals to the top half. Am I the only one facing this? Or does anyone have any remote clue as to what could be going on/can be done to stop this? Obviously, it's very inconvenient in my life.

What troubleshooting steps have you taken so far?
Restart?
Reset?
Reset All Settings?
Restore From Backup?
Restore As New?

Are touch screen gestures supposed to be obvious?

Bought my father a new nano, loaded up some music, and I am trying to navigate. My iPod nano 2nd generation has the click wheel, so now I am trying to use the touch screen. I assumed it would be like the iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch that I am used to, but hardly anything seems to work.
If I touch on the icon for Music, it gets outlined, but nothing happens.
I have to touch rapidly twice to open the Music icon.
When I slide up to scroll, nothing happens.
When I slide right to go back (per the on-screen tip), nothing happens.
On the home screen, at the bottom, there are two small circles indicating that there is another page of icons, but scrolling does not seem to work.
I just double-checked, and I did remove the plastic cover over the screen.
It is a two hour round trip to the nearest Apple store, so before I drive there to have them say, "no, this isn't a touch screen", is there anything obvious that I could be missing? My old old 2nd gen nano has a switch that prevents to click wheel from operating, but I don't see anything like that here.
Thanks
Bill

To follow up in case anyone else has the same problem: the third Apple store employee that I showed the device to realized that one of the visual accessibility features had been enabled.
This feature apparently uses voice over to announce what icon you've touched, and then requires a second touch to select the icon. The first two employees claimed that you have to double-tap on the iPod, which is wrong. The third guy's quote: "If you turn on this visual accessibility feature and you actually can see, you will become incredibly frustrated".
Once he turned the feature off, the touch screen became responsive as I would expect. Select an item with a single tap, scroll with a swipe, and so on.
If it seems that your touch screen is not working "right", try connecting to iTunes to see if this feature is turned on: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH1695

HP Envy touch screen no longer working

Not certain when but my touch screen is no longer working on my HP Envy? Think it might have occurred during the Windows 8.1 upgrade.
Please provide a simple way to restore. Pen and touch is no longer installed?

Hello again dmcarswell,
Thank you for responding to my post requesting additional information. I am going to recommend that you review and follow the steps set out in the HP Support document: Using HP Support Assistant (Windows 8), which in the section "Software and drivers installed" has the instructions you need to follow. As long as the drivers are available and you have an internet connection the HP Support Assistant should automatically find, download and install the drivers for you.
Now if you are still experiencing the same issue after doing this you may have to go into the Device Manager and manually uninstall the Graphics driver (ensuring it is deleted). Once you have done this manually download and install the driver from the HP ENVY TouchSmart 15-j063cl Notebook PC Drivers page.
Please re-post if you require additional support. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!
Please click the "Thumbs Up" on the bottom right of this post to say thank you if you appreciate the support I provide!
Also be sure to mark my post as “Accept as Solution" if you feel my post solved your issue, it will help others who face the same challenge find the same solution.
